.insta-vine and stuff lately

↑↑silly teeth binki from my brother Jordan’s family

You know... if I had a dollar for every time I've written something really silly on my blog, I'd have like $2 maybe $3. I'm talking about Canadian dollars though... so they're worth a little bit less right now.

Oh now we’re at $4!

Air-bear and commenter Adam (Wilson?) are making fun of me for my last post, when I was talking about how Ames is a total stud and a really easy baby… and then I said “I wouldn’t have him any other way” in the same sentence??? hahaha …So now I just have to clarify that I would have Ames ANY way. Also, I am going to blame this one on mommy brain? Can I do that? Too late.

Here’s some stuff we’ve been up to:

We love Ames’ silly faces when he’s eating. He really hates eating solids.

***

The neighbors made the classic blunder of keeping their car parked on the tall ice for too long. We like to laugh at them. The car is completely stuck.

***

Ames likes grocery shopping

Some weird things we bought on that same shopping trip. So far they both work great.

***

Ames loved the missionaries who came to visit.

***

We love visiting with our friend Kyle. Awesome Kyle Vaughan (yes, he can play my favorite song on the guitar)

***

We’re about ready to retire the swing… just look at this big boy!

he falls asleep pretty quickly in it.

***

Sunday walk with the family. Ames was all bundled up in Tiana’s hoodie and tons of blankets. It’s still pretty chilly here… but I just know spring is coming! Just around the corner?

***

Ames’ perfect ear imprint on my arm after his nap.

***

Some of Ames new tricks. He can stand on his knees really well and even pull himself up to his knees from sitting!

and he can do this bbuh bbuh bbuh thing all day long.

Another Flat Stanley done for my cousin Jessica’s little girl Sophie… this one I got to decorate. It was fun, he’s Canadian with a coat beard and skis. (not quite as cool as the Texan my cousin Jenny made)
